Compact Passive 2-Channel Mixer

The Saramonic AX1 is a battery-free passive micro-mixer that combines two 3.5mm TRS inputs into a single output. It includes both TRS and TRRS coiled cables for direct connection to cameras, smartphones, computers and recorders. Weighing 0.04 pounds and measuring 1.89 x 1.89 x 0.98 inches, it adds negligible bulk to any rig. A 1/4"-20 mount allows secure attachment to cages or brackets.

Suited for Powered Mic Users

This mixer is built for creators using battery-powered microphones or wireless receivers such as the Blink 500 series. It provides individual input attenuators and a mono/stereo output switch for precise level control. It will not work with plug-in powered microphones that require power from the input jack. Buyers needing phantom power, XLR connectivity or more than two channels should look at larger active mixers.

Passive Operation Requires Powered Sources

The AX1 draws no power of its own and supplies none to connected microphones. Both input sources must be self-powered or wireless receivers with their own power. This single constraint determines whether the mixer functions in a given setup.

Questions about this item

Does the passive AX1 generate any heat or noise when left running all day?

The AX1 is a completely passive circuit with no power supply, so it produces no heat, no fan noise and no electrical hum during continuous use.

What microphones or receivers must I already own for the two 3.5 mm TRS inputs to work?

You need battery-powered or wireless microphones and receivers that output a line-level signal on 3.5 mm TRS; plug-in-power microphones will not function with this mixer.

Will the included TRS and TRRS output cables let me connect the mixer to my older DSLR and smartphone at the same time?

Only one output cable can be used at a time; the TRS cable suits cameras and recorders with a TRS mic input, while the TRRS cable suits smartphones and tablets with a TRRS headset jack.
